People will shout to them,‘Terror is all around you!’” 30 The LORD says,“Flee quickly, you who live in Hazor. Take up refuge in remote places. For King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has laid out plans to attack you. He has formed his strategy on how to defeat you.” 31 The LORD says,“Army of Babylon, go and attack a nation that lives in peace and security. They have no gates or walls to protect them. They live all alone. 32 Their camels will be taken as plunder. Their vast herds will be taken as spoil. I will scatter to the four winds those desert peoples who cut their hair short at the temples. I will bring disaster against them from every direction,” says the LORD. 33 “Hazor will become a permanent wasteland, a place where only jackals live. No one will live there. No human being will settle in it.”
